Summary
This study documents a three-year chromatic design intervention at the Borja Geriatric Center within the Fontilles Foundation, evaluating the practical application of color charts in care spaces for elderly residents. The findings offer guidance for interior design decisions in elder care facilities, where color and light interaction can influence orientation, wellbeing, and safety.
